A special telegram to tho Pittsburgh
Dispatch from Harrisburg, Pa, saya: Tho
most important bill introduced in the
House was one by Billingsley, to punish
corporations, companies, firms and per-
song, and each Of them, for charging in
excess Of certain fixed rates for the piping,
storing, etc., OF oil. Section / provides
that no euch corporation, etc, shall charge
more than 10 cents barrel for receiving,
piping and delivering oil, and that pipe
lines must establish at least one fully
equipped shipping point in each division.
Section 2 provides that no pipe line or
storage concern shall charge more than
onc-sixtieth OF one cent barrel day
for storing oil. and shall not charge
for credit balances for the first
80 days. Section 8 requires that
such concerns ehall store oil Tor one year,
or for shorter period II desired, at the
charge 40 stipulated in the preceding Sec
ton. Section provides that no. more
than ! OF percent shall be deducted from
oil received Tor leaking, evaporation, for
eiSn substance and waste. Section 5 re-
qures such concerns, upon application, to
lay pipes to any well where oil has been
found, and to receive, transport, store or
deliver such oil. Section G describes the
manner OF making general average assess.
ments. Section provides penalty for the
violation of any Of the psoviciona Of the
act OF not less than $4,000 nor moro than
$1,000 fine for the first olense, and OF not
less than 5000 nor more than s., 600 fine
and imprisonment Tor not less than sixty
days nor more than one year for any SUBJ
seeuent otiense. Section provided that
the act shall not interfere with any con-
tracts now existing.
The reductions arrived at in this bill arc
sweeping. Pipsse is reduced from 20
cents barrel to 10 cents, storage from
II SIS cents barrel year TO about G
cents, and the percent assessment is
Knocked into cooked hat OF ! Of l per-
cent. The measure is the outcome of
years oppression suffered by the producing
and investing classes, and the fact that the
principal transporting and storage COM
pany has amseacd wealth to the amount
OF 800 GOO, 900, in addition to profits taken
out OF the buainess during the past ten
years from an investment Of S250,0OO,
tends to prove thai tho bill does not
shave much closer than justice demands.
The petroleum industry is lauguishing
under the impositiohs Of this tax, and
some such remedy as tho one proposed
appears to be necessary. The storage rate
may be reduced to somewhat lower
figure il necessary, hut the other items
allow still OF fair margin of profit to the
carrying company. a hot fight is ex.
pected on the bill, with no means Of tell
ing at this stage which party holds the
upper hand. 1t went to the Judiciary
General Committee this afternoon, and
will be reported to tho House tomorrow
as committed and put upon its passage.
